Is there any chance we can encourage you to trend #NVIDIA when that's the company you mean, please? I know what their NASDAQ handle is, but #NVDA is much more widely known as the name of the screen reader we make and the #NVDA hashtag is very widely used for the screen reader. It will save both our communities polluting each other's feeds. If you'd like to find out more about the screen reader, our website is nvaccess.org/ - Thank you!

@dhamlinmusic Thanks for your help! To be honest, aside from about yourself, 99.9% of the time #NVDA is used to refer to NVIDIA stocks, it's spam / scam - I certainly wouldn't follow the hashtag for stock information - I'd follow the Stocks or Finance hashtags you also use. I'd be surprised if it's the only one - just looking back through, 99% of toots about SNOW are not about the stock - and that's what I was trying to do - ensure people following a hashtag get primarily ONE subject

@jscholes @jcsteh That was my reasoning for pushing the stock people to use the company name. If you use NVIDIA, there's no confusion - there is no other entity that I'm aware of called NVIDIA. And even though their code is NVDA, the screen reader IS much more widely known as NVDA. Users who have followed us post-twitter, might not actually know what NVDASR is. In any case, if we use NVDA and stock people use NVIDIA, then everyone can follow what they actually want - one, the other, or both
